There are eight types of management in business. <span />
Given:
Present value, P=179500
interest per period (month), i = 0.0475/12
number of periods (month), n=30*12=360
Interest charged after first month
Interest=P*i
=179500*0.0475/12
=710.52
Monthly payment (just to confirm that A > Interest)
A = Pi(1+i)^n/((1+i)^n-1)
=179500*(0.0475/12)(1+0.0475/12)^360/((1+0.0475/12)^360-1)
= 936.36 (to the nearest cent.
> 710.52 so ok.
a) 12 customers per hour is the flow rate of the process.
b) if the car wash has a demand of 15 cars per hour 60 percent is the utilization of the machine that performs the wax process.
<h3><u>
Explanation:</u></h3>
a) The bottle neck which is the process of washing has a capacity of 12 number of cars as its minimum capacity. The flow rate is considered as the minimum capacity of the bottleneck. Thus, flow rate of the process will be 12 customers per hour.
b) The utilization capacity can be calculated by dividing flow rate by the capacity of the process step.
Here the demand is 15 cars per hour. The calculated flow rate is 12 cars per hour. The difference is 3.
Thus the capacity of the machine which performs the wax process will be 1 / 3 × 60 = 20 cars per hour.
Thus the utilization of this machine is 12 / 20 = 60 percent.
Utilization is the flow rate divided by the capacity of the process step.
Answer:
1. Purchase of stock. FINANCING ACTIVITIES.
Financing activities relate to transactions that involve the capital of the company. They include long term debt and equity. In this case, the company is buying back its own shares so this falls under Financing activities as it has to do with the company's own capital.
2. Principal payment on long-term debt. FINANCING ACTIVITIES.
Principal repayment retires long term debt and as mentioned above, financing activities relate to activities that involve long term debt.
3. Proceeds from sale of properties. INVESTING ACTVITIES.
Properties are fixed assets and transactions involving these are considered investing activities so the proceeds from a sale of properties would rightfully be an investing activity.
4. Inventories (decrease). OPERATING ACTIVITIES.
Transactions that have to do with the day to day operations of the business fall under operating activities and this includes inventories decreasing.
5. Accounts payable (decrease). OPERATING ACTIVITIES.
Operations of the business includes accounts payables decreasing as well.
6. Depreciation and amortization. OPERATING ACTIVITIES.
Depreciation and amortization arise from using the fixed assets for day to day operations so this will fall under Operating activities.
Answer: False
Explanation:
In an emerging market, there are only a few firms as the product is new and so has not been copied extensively yet. As a result, only a small set of firms are dominant in the market.
As the market grows and firms see that there is profit to be made, they will come into the market and this will increase the number of firms and reduce the dominance of the earlier firms.
